Very nice.

The Dutch arable farmer union wrote on Twitter that we should separate the issue of patenst and new GMOs.

Because they want new GMOs. They then say the issue of patents tshould be "tackled separately".

I have asked them, what is their action plan to tackle patents on new GMOs, if campaign coalitions like NPOS are fighting for 20 years to keep patents just off the conventional seeds, and EPO keeps granting them?

I hope NPOS can get involved in the fight on new GMOs from the patent angle. It's the most difficult argument for them.

Dear all,

 

a Dutch magazine published an interview about patents and made a funny illustration with me - attached! 😉

The whole issue: https://downtoearthmagazine.nl/magazines/down-to-earth-75/

 

Best,
